RunPod ComfyUI pay as you go - how to turn off?

[frozen widget]

Yo. I didn't know how to describe my question better, but I just created a new pod with an rtx 4090 and a network volume of 25gbs, with a pay as you go tarif. So now I wanna use the pod, then "pause" it and use it tomorrow again. How do I pause it, because I don't wanna get charged for hours I didnt use it. Or does it automatically turn off after not using it? I haven't found anything on that question, so I thought it would be quicker to ask right here.

@frozen widget hey. If you want to pause your pod, just navigate to Pods (in the menu on the left) in runpod's console, click the card with your pod and click STOP (see the screenshot. Your pod will shutdown and you'll pay only for /workspace volume usage. (there are several ways to find out how much you are being charged for your paused pod)

as for the 502 Bad Gateway issue (I guess you are getting 502 from Cloud Flare), I would need more information - but it seems Comfy is either not running or not on that port. If you want send me a DM and I can help.

Thanks for offering your help. However I found out the issue was the "ReActor" nodes that I tried to install. After removing them, everything worked fine again.

glad you got it working :)

I cant seem to see that screenshot...

Oh now I see. But for me it doesnt say "Stop"

It just says "Terminate"

[simple burrow]

isnt it stoped then? (does it say start?)

definitely dont click terminate, that will delete your pod

oh, I see .. you are running a pod with network volume, right?

then you just terminate it and next time deploy a new pod. If you dont want to setup everything every time you deploy a pod, just create your own template. it's quite easy (My templates in the menu in runpod's console)

[frozen widget]

Nope. Its running but I can just terminate it. No deletion

[frozen widget]

oh yeah

[frozen widget]

ohhh okay thats good to know.

Thank you very much

[simple burrow]

dont be afraid to terminate it then, all you data are stored on network volume

its just next time you need to deploy a new pod (new hostname every time)

no prob

[frozen widget]

okay thanks :D
